Definitions
- the present invention relates to a heat exchanger element comprising a combustion chamber for a heat exchanger for boiler and heating applications. More in particular the present invention relates to a heat exchanger element comprising a combustion chamber and a heavy load premix burner with minimal CO and NOx generation.
- Outward curved or ridged premix burner membranes e.g. as known from WO 2004/082647 in the name of the applicant, especially the two ridged burner membranes, have proven to be very efficient in high load premix applications.
- the flame patterns produced by outward curved burner surfaces and ridged burner surfaces are defined by a lateral extending flame front.
- These burner membranes are designed for heavy load burning generating minimal amounts of CO and NOx.
- these burners are mounted into a combustion chamber, still higher levels of CO and NOx are reached because of the available combustion volume in the combustion chamber and/or the combustion chamber interior design. High CO-values are created when the flame comes in direct contact with cold surfaces, thereby ending the combustion reaction too early.
- An aspect of the present invention provides a new heat exchanger element comprising a premix burner with an outward curved or ridged burner surface.
- the premix burner is a metallic premix burner, more preferably, the premix burner is a metal fiber premix burner.
- the burner surface is shaped according to WO 2004/092647, but similar burner membrane shapes are also possible.
- the heat exchanger element further comprises a combustion chamber. The combustion chamber is bound on one side by the burner and is further made up of water cooled metal walls which first widen and thereafter narrow down to the width of a customary heat exchanger element. This creates enough space for a proper combustion, thereby reaching low emissions of NOx and CO.
- the flame patterns produced by outward curved burner surfaces and ridged burner surfaces are defined by a lateral extending flame front.
- the chamber opens up following the shape of the flame.
- the chamber narrows, preferably gradually, down to the width of a flue gas draft of a customary heat exchanger element. In this way the lateral flame front and the hot flue gasses are perfectly aligned with the cooled sidewalls without creation of dead angles where recirculation could occur and due to avoiding direct burning of flames onto the water cooled metal walls which results in too early ending of the combustion reaction.
- the combustion chamber has a tulip or drop like section which, more preferably follows the flame pattern and bends the flames equally without abrupt altering of the flames.
- This smooth transition of the width of the combustion chamber in downstream direction provides a proper combustion due to avoiding dead angles and/or recirculation in the combustion chamber in the smallest volume attainable.
- the heat exchanger element according to the invention is made of aluminium or an aluminiumalloy.
- Figure 3A shows the typical V-shaped flame front of a one-ridged, preferably metal fiber, burner.
- Figure 3B shows the typical W-shaped flame front of a two-ridged, preferably metal fiber, burner.
- Figure 4 shows a drawing of another exemplary heat exchanger element according to the present invention.
- Figure 5 shows a section along the lines V-V in figure 4.
- FIG. 1 and figure 2 show a heat exchanger element 10.
- the combustion chamber 12 widens downstream from the burner and preferably is designed in a tulip or drop like form.
- the combustion chamber 12 internal design also contains long fins 18 at its inner water cooled walls 16 for removing already a lot of the heat from the flue gases.
- This tulip form seems particularly useful when using a burner of the type as described in WO 2004/092647.
- the tulip-like form can be described as follows: the burner chamber 12 is bound by the one-ridged burner 14, thereafter the combustion chamber 12 widens and then narrows down to the width of the flue gas draft 20.
- This specific form is especially designed to follow the lateral flame pattern, exemplary flame patterns are shown in figure 3A for a one-ridged burner membrane and in figure 3B for a two-ridged burner membrane, and it bends the flames equally without abrupt altering of the flame. This creates enough space for a proper combustion, thereby reaching low emissions of NOx and CO and thereby also attaining a very compact design. NOx levels of ⁇ 35 mg/kWh and CO-levels of ⁇ 45 mg/kWh can be achieved by shaping the combustion room in this way.
- a one-ridged premix metal fiber burner the Bekaert Furinit® burner, of 30 kW is burning with a complete combustion and low NOx and CO generation in a combustion chamber of 0,75 I.
- the specific load of the combustion chamber is 40 kW/l.
- Figures 4 and 5 show another exemplary heat exchanger element with a round section.
- the premix burner is also a round burner, e.g. known on the market as a Bekaert Furinit® burner, with one round ridge.
- the heat exchanger element is made up as in figure 1 but in a round form, the pins 22 in figure 2 are replaced by circular fins in the flue gas draft of figure 5. This might be a very useful option in space saving solutions.
- the Furinit® burner has a load of 40 kW in a burner chamber of 1 ,01. The specific load of the combustion chamber is 40 kW/l.
